Couldn't you just do something like this:

folder-hook . 'set from=ch...@isbd.co.uk; set realname="Chris Green"'
folder-hook /path/to/cl 'set from=c...@isbd.net; set realname="Chris Green"'

The first line sets the default and the second line sets it for the cl
folder. Although I'm not sure how this interacts with your send-hook
lines; maybe you'd need to remove the 'send-hook . ' line.
